Skills are built not born.

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice.

You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today

I have not failed, I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Don't expect to be good at maths or understand things straight away. Be patient and persistent. Rome wasn't built in a day, but they worked on it every single day. 

Work on your weaknesses until they are your strengths and work on your strengths until they are second nature.

The master has failed more times than the beginner has even tried

Pure mathematics is in its way, the poetry of logical ideas.

Each day is an opportunity to improve. Aim to be that little bit better than yesterday and better tomorrow than today.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

Procrastination is the thief of time and the enemy of success.

Success is not final, failure is not fatal.  It is the courage to continue that counts.

Don’t be afraid to work hard and find out how good you can really be.

Dreams don't work unless you do.
